Bronneberg Forfex 500 – Alligator Shears

The Forfex-500 Alligator Shear

The Bronneberg Forfex-500 alligator shear is equipped with 500mm blades. This hydraulic alligator shear is the ideal machine when it comes to the cleaning of light and medium-sized non-ferrous materials. This shear can also be used for shearing ferrous materials like reinforcing bar and mild steel round bars.

This maintenance- and operator-friendly shear is equipped with a mechanically adjustable hold-down clamp in combination with a safety guard over the cutting head. The hold-down clamp prevents material from kicking back and therefore guarantees operator safety.

The shear head is operated by a mechanical foot pedal for single or continuous cutting. The opening of the shear head can be adjusted by simply moving the end switch. To maximise operator safety, the shear head moves back to its starting position immediately when the operator removes his foot from the pedal.
